Salzburg


The scenery was very picturesque. Quaint villages that are very neat and brightly painted.

Salzburg is the birth place of Mozart and the Austrians are very proud of their son. His father's home is well marked and someone created a fabulous candy and had the smarts to name it after him. Of course the gals had to purchase some of the delicacies to share with their loved ones back home.

What a glorious day in Salzburg. During our drive we encountered rain and snow. Somehow the snow seemed to fit the situation. Christmas Markets and snow seem to go together. The only downfall was the weather moved in over the glorious hills so the visibility was poor. I am sure the lake district offers spectacular secenery on a bright sunny day. Once again, a little rain couldn't dampen our spirits.
